CHAPTER 7.2 · SIMULATION 3

Pressure and Temperature Tank

How to use: Slide the temperature to heat the rigid tank. Read the pressure. Press Record point to add a row to the table. The volume cannot change.

THE GAS

Fixed: volume (rigid tank) and amount of gas. P ÷ T stays the same.
TEMPERATURE
PRESSURE
P ÷ T

GRAPH AND DATA

TEMPERATURE (K)PRESSURE (kPa)P ÷ T (kPa/K)

Sample data: values are idealized (illustrative). Rigid tank, P ÷ T = 0.400 kPa/K.
